Anchor: Christmas Ale 2009 (Winter Warmer) 5.5%

Drank  From: bottle, poured into a pint glass
I first had this last Christmas. I remember it being a little too spicy and piny in taste and smell. I saved one to see if it would mellow out a year later; which turned out to be true. It poured dark brown with a nice head on it. The smells and flavors were much more rounded out and pleasant. I could smell caramel and toasty, but the taste was bitter and not sweet...similar to an ESB. This was definitely better than it was a year ago. 

My Rating: B/3.75
